Sunday Walk...

We took a much needed walk along the Venice Canals, this past Sunday!  I really enjoy this part of L.A., it's very peaceful and calming to me.  Daydreaming of one day living here!  I would love to live in certain parts of Venice, Ca if we stay in L.A.  We always talk of moving up North, but if we find something special here in L.A, we just might stay!  I'm finding as I get older that L.A. has so much to offer.  In the meantime, we will explore...preferably on Sundays.

Abbot Kinney Festival...

Yesterday, we took in the Abbot Street Festival.  I can finally mark this off my list.   It was worth the wait!  Full of fabulous street vendors, food trucks, and of course music.  The highlight of the festival for me was the live music.  They had different stages throughout the festival with different types of music.  The Ethio Cali Ensemble and Slow Magic were my favs.  Please check them out!  We really didn't do the food truck thing since we had a late breakfast and I prepared dinner at home.   I think I will make this event a yearly thing.

Here are some photos of the day...

we did try the fries, but not so good.

I was really admiring the homes in this area.
